Before You Say I Love You By Sarah Gate
Grief taught her how to survive.
Love could teach her how to live again.
Maddie Whittle is done with heartbreak — or so she tells herself. Six years after losing her beloved brother, she’s transforming her family’s estate into a wellness retreat.
The work is hard, the stakes are high and Maddie has no time for distractions.
Until a runaway piglet from the local farm brings her face to face with James Byron — an infuriating blast from her past.
Maddie needs help. James needs a job. What neither of them want is the slow-burning tension that could turn their bickering partnership into something far more dangerous: hope.
As winter sets in and renovations bring them closer, Maddie must confront the one thing she’s avoided for years. The possibility of a future defined by love.
